Miss Celie's Love

Miss Celie’s love is soft and slender,
The meeting of water smoothing stones,
Miss Celie’s love has tender lip
And from her mouth
Blooms both melody and roses,
At Miss Celie’s love, all look twice
Pay attention for a while
To her croon and shimmy,
Miss Celie’s love is the wild flower,
Nobody can own her even Miss Celie,
She is as free as the glitters
That bounce off her dress,
Miss Celie’s love is a wonders creature.
